PARIS – The French fitness government said the number of people hospitalized by COVID-19 surpassed the 6,000 mark on Wednesday, the first time since July 22, when there are still more than 1,000 patients in intensive care units, grades that have not been noticed since early June.
France has reported an outbreak of COVID-19 infections since the beginning of the month.
